To all the kids out there: Follow your dream. Believe in your dream. Because dreams do come true.

I wanted to be a part of something special and contributing to the launch of a new league was very exciting to me.

I can't find a job. It makes me crazy.

I told myself that if I ever make it to the big leagues that I would be the one to appreciate the fans. Take a little time out to sign autographs and shake their hands and say hello to them.

Lou Brock was a great base stealer but today I am the greatest.

It gave me no chance. He (Nolan Ryan) just blew it (strikeout #5,000) by me. But its an honor. I'll have another paragraph in all the baseball books. I'm already in the books three or four times.

My journey as a player is complete.
